The Injured

The Injured
Mamih Pusara


The wedding ceremony between Radit and Echa is getting closer, the wedding preparations are already seventy-five percent. Everything was prepared by Radit and Echa's parents. They do not want their child to be exhausted preparing for marriage.


Radit's arrival to Echa's house without news makes Echa a little confused. Moreover, Radit's face that looks sad.


"What's up, Bhal?" Echa was sitting next to Radit and gently rubbed the back of Radit's hand.


Radit just let out a heavy breath. Instead of staring at the bead of his wife's eyes.


"We go to Mamih's tomb," he said pilu.


Echa cupped Radit's sad face. Smile warmly at him. "Don't be sad, Mamih must be happy to see her son getting married" said Echa, who continued to smile.


Echa's smile is transmitted to Radit. I'd love Radit to kiss cherry Echa's red lips. However, he still had to endure it. He chose to kiss Echa's forehead very deeply.


"Thank you, Honey. You always understand me" said the heartfelt words that came out of Radit's mouth.


"We promised to complement each other." Echa's hand was still coiled around Radit's waist making Radit's face disappear instantly.


"I don't like to see you sad like this" said Echa.


"Yes, Honey. I'm sorry." Radit taps the head of Echa.


"I'll get ready, yeah."


Once the Echa is ready, they go to a flower shop first. Echa wants to bring flowers for her future in-laws. Choosing the most beautiful flowers to beautify the navel.


"Sheep the same brother brought flowers, Yang." That's what Radit said. However, Echa still insisted on bringing her future father-in-law beautiful flowers.


"I want to give something beautiful to Mamih, Bhal." Radit could only give in with a glaring smile. Radit is happy because Echa seems to love her Mamihnya even though she is gone.


They were at the funeral. Radit stared at the nanar in the direction where the papih and his brother were. Echa clasped Radit's hand very tightly. Making Radit look towards the future wife.


"I will always be by your side." The words that made Radit curl his smile. Hugging Echa's body for a moment. Neutralizing his already raging feelings.


Addhitama looked towards Radit and also Echa who had just arrived. His hand had begun to gently rub the wife's headstone.


"Mamih, Papih came with Rifal and also Radit. Papih's arrival to tell Mamih that soon our youngest child will release his bachelor status." Addhitama's words made Rifal and Radit bow in deep. Sad, that's what they both feel.


Echa increasingly tightened his grip on Radit. At times like this Radit looks fragile.


"The beautiful woman next to our youngest son is his future wife. She's a great woman, capable of healing the inner wounds that our child suffers. Echa, his name is Echa. She's a good woman and the next child of Papih's best friend, Genta. Mamih must remember that."


The words of the Papih make Rifal and Radit increasingly sobbing. Not without reason, these two Addhitama children know very well what Addhitama is feeling. That's what makes them cry. Living only with a father from childhood can make them understand the real feelings of Addhitama. Behind the sunglasses perched on Addhitama's nose was the sadness and grief that Addhitama was trying to hide.


"We should be proud of Radit. He grew up to be a great boy. Two titles at once. Psychologist and doctor. In accordance with the wishes of Papih. In his young age he was able to produce extraordinary coffers. It's all the work of our son. Without the help of Papih. Papih is very proud of him, Mih." Addhitama's voice began to tremble.


Radit's getting deep. His body trembled, his tears were unable to hold. The title he got is less than perfect because twice graduation there is no Mamih who accompanies him.


"Restui our son's marriage. Let her be happy with her choice of woman. It's time our youngest son got happiness."


Only a created heart. Instantly the atmosphere was silent. Addhitama is no longer speaking. Come down, his chest was very tight if he had to report to his late wife about Radit. His youngest son who never got a warm touch from his mother since he was born into the world.


Echa woke up from her squatting position. Making the three men stare confusedly at Echa.


Echa gently rubbed the tombstone of her future in-laws. He smiled towards the tombstone. Like seeing the mamih of Radit.


"Assalamualaikum, Mamih." Echa was still smiling while looking at the tombstone.


"Echa call Mamih, yes. Let's be more familiar. This is the second time Echa has come here. First chance to talk directly to Mamih."


"Believe me, Mamih has given birth to Brother Radit into this world. If, Echa had not met Radit's brother, maybe Echa would still have been drowned in a gaping wound so wide. Son Mamih hero for Echa. He was able to heal the invisible wounds that Echa suffered. He's always there for Echa. At first he was very annoying, but he was very understanding and able to make Echa comfortable." Radit's lips are on the side of hearing the word Echa. His wife-to-be was complaining to Mamih.


"Echa is not a perfect woman, Mih. Echa also has flaws and a sad past. Echa hope Mamih can accept it. Like Radit's brother who will accept all Echa's shortcomings. Papih also loves Echa like his daughter. Rifal's brother who thinks of Echa as his own younger brother. Echa hope Mamih will bless our marriage and love Echa like Mamih's own son."


"Even though Mamih is gone. And not with us anymore. Echa sure, right now Mamih is with us here. Mamih must be a great and beautiful woman. Because they are able to give birth to beautiful and beautiful children. Echa wants to be like Mamih. Echa wants to be a good wife and mother. Lead Echa, Mih. Echa is still minimal science about such things," he said.


The three men's tears seeped upon hearing the narration from Echa. Their hearts were slashed when they heard the sincerity of Echa's heart expression in front of the tombstone. Echa was talking to her future father-in-law.


"Mamih look and listen. Our daughter-in-law is very good. Papih loved him very much. Papih hope, Mamih also loves Echa," continued Addhitama with a small smile on his lips.


"Mih, Brother is stepped up with Radit," complained Rifal who wanted to change the atmosphere.


Now, it was Radit's turn to approach the Mamih's headstone. His eyes were flowing every time he came to this cemetery.


"Mih, Radit's back here. Sorry, Radit rarely nengokin Mamih. Every time Radit comes here, Radit can't stand the tightness in Radit's chest. If you see this Mamih house makes Radit want to be embraced by Mamih." The atmosphere that had melted was now back to being sad.


"Mamih knows, when Radit's engagement was some time ago. Radit hopes Mamih will accompany Radit there. Radit also wants to have a photo with Mamih on Radit's happy day. Radit wants to have good memories with Mamih."


Addhitama could not hold back her tears. A clear thread dripped down so profusely soaked his face. So too with Rifal. He stared pushyly and pity at Radit. His very poor sister.


"Mih, Mamih's son is now an adult. Radit soon becomes a husband. Pray Radit may Radit be as wonderful a husband and father as Papih."


"Please bless Radit's marriage to the woman Radit loved after Mamih. Why did Radit choose Echa to be Radit's wife? She is a great and strong woman. Radit was very comfortable to be next to him. Radit also felt his hand touch as soft as Mamih's hand touch. Makes Radit not want to part with him. Until Radit willingly competes with Abang in order to retain the extraordinary woman next to Radit." Radit's hand was holding Echa's hand tightly.


"Getting Echa is not easy, Mih. She is not an easy woman to fall in love with. Not a woman who is easily seduced. It takes a struggle to get it. When Radit has won Echa's heart. Radit must fight again to get the hearts of both Echa's fathers. It's so emotional, Mih. Especially Echa's real father. Must be a sultan first to marry his daughter," complained Radit was met with a funny smile by Echa.


"If Mamih is still there, surely Mamih is happy to see Mamih's beautiful daughter-in-law. Mamih will also feel proud to see the Echa family. Echa is not a child of a full family. His father and mother have separated. However, they still get along to this day. Though both parents of Echa already have their own partner. They are still compact in taking care of Echa. Must be Mamih proud of them and feel lucky to have a candidate like them."


"Thank you Mih, has given birth to Radit. If Radit wasn't born Radit wouldn't have met Echa. Nor will Radit marry her. Radit dear Mamih."


Rough breathing is heard clearly by Addhitama, Rifal and Echa. Echa's hand rubbed Radit's back gently. Give peace to her future husband. Radit turned to his side with a smile.


"Although Radit never felt the warm touch and affection of Mamih. Through Echa, Radit can sense all that. Mamih's departure to make Radit meet with Echa. Mamih's departure to make Radit an independent and strong human being. Mamih's departure makes Radit more eager to live this hard life. Mamih's departure made Radit not want to hurt women and appreciate women very much. Thanks, Mih. Mamih's departure made Radit a lot of learning and a lot of gratitude. Radit dear Mamih." Warm kiss Radit give on a tombstone. Make Addhitama rub Radit's back slowly. Too many regrets Addhitama felt.


Echa lays white lily flowers on top of Radit's mother's belly button. A smile curvature was carved from his lips. "May Mamih like the flowers. Echa promise, Echa will often nengokin Mamih here. Of course with this handsome Mamih boy," he said with a smile that never faded.


"Echa back home, Mih. It's getting darker. Echa dear Mamih." Radite reaches the Echa's waist and taps the Echa temple. Very lucky he got a woman as good as Echa.


Addhitama and Rifal smile happily seeing Radit find true happiness.


After the funeral, Radit and Echa return to Echa's house. Radit lies down on Echa's couch. Without closing the door.


"Bhal, do you want to take a shower or eat? Mom and Dad are also checking on our wedding preparations" explained Echa who had just walked into her room with two glasses of juice in her hand.


"I want you" he said, stretching out his hand. Echa smiled and approached Radit. After the two glasses are placed on the table. Then Echa hugged Radit's body.


"Don't leave me. Only you make me happy" Radit said.


After being satisfied to embrace the body of Echa Radit drink the juice that Echa has prepared. Without letting go of his hand to Echa.


"What child do you want?" The question that made Echa choke on the juice that had just entered her throat.


"It's not yet," said Echa. Radit smiled at Echa. Then pull him into his arms.


"At a moment we are legal to be husband and wife, Yang. And soon you'll be all mine. Including your body" Radit explained.


Radit parsed his embrace, staring into Echa's bead of eyes. Pulling Echa's chin and her face began to approach. Their breaths were mutually convenient. Their lips are united. Echa's eyes instantly patterned. However, the eyes began to shut feeling the softness of the movement of the lips that Radit gave.


Echa crumpled, and she began to wrap her hands around Radit's neck. Enjoy every lip sweep of Radit. Feel the little bites Radit gives. And Radit's tongue that's already served Echa's mouth. The storm ended when the oxygen began to run low. Radit smiled at Echa. Swabbing the wet lips of Echa.


"Sorry, yes, dear. I can't help it" Radit regretted. Echa just shook her head and then briefly kissed Radit's lips. Success makes Radit sculpt for a fraction of a second.


"Start naughty, yeah." Echa just laughed. Trying to avoid Radit. However, losing to Radit's hand speed, Echa falls into Radit's lap.


Their faces meet. They bring their faces closer. The lip itself happened again. These two people don't seem to do it enough just once. Their partner's lips become opium.


After the pawn was released, they smiled in satisfaction. "The first kiss?" ask Radit. Echa nodded.


"Thank you, sweetie." Now, Radit peeps Echa's forehead very deeply. His heart is really happy. The kiss they did was both a first kiss for them.


Echa smiled when she saw her future husband sleeping after eating boiled noodles a bowl together. Radit's face looks very peaceful when closed. His looks are getting radiated. Echa sat on the floor in front of the sofa that Radit occupied.


"I'm still lucky of you, Bhal. Your heart must hurt more than I feel. Your life must be harder than I've been, but I'm proud of you. You can get through everything. You grew up to be an amazing man."


"I love you, Bhal. Menu with me. Be a wonderful father to our children." Echa kisses Radit's forehead very deeply.
